The FBI has reportedly joined local and state agencies to investigate what caused a U.S. Marine Corps KC-130 to corkscrew out of the sky and into a soybean field in MS, killing at least 16. Authorities provided few details on what went wrong, or the nature of the Marines´ mission.

Captain Sarah Burns, a spokeswoman for the Marine Corps, said only that a US Marines KC-130 Hercules transport aircraft had "experienced a mishap", with news media initially reporting five confirmed deaths. The cause of the crash was under investigation, though no foul play was suspected. "He will be missed, and I send my condolences and prayers to his family and friends".

Mr Jones said a man borrowed his mobile phone to report to authorities that there were bodies across a highway, more than a mile from the crash site.

The KC-130 plane was from the Marine Corps Air Station Cherry Point, North Carolina.

Fisher said the "crash area has been secured" but that there are still explosives that need to be recovered by teams on the ground.

The refueling aircraftcrashed Monday afternoon in a soybean field in rural MS, killing at least 16 people aboard.

The crash happened outside the small town of Itta Bena about 85 miles north of the state capital of Jackson.
